AngloGold Ashanti plc (AU) on Decifer
Decifer ranks AU number 94 of 270 tracked names on durable business quality.
Why it ranks here
- It earns strong returns on the money it puts to work, around 24% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
- Revenue is growing about 71% a year, profits grew 123% over the past year, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
- It keeps a high share of every sale as profit, with profitability widening as it grows.
- and has the balance sheet to fund its growth.
- We do not have a clean read on how it is run yet.
- Its profit margin and growth are both unusually high right now compared to its own history, the kind of combination that often fades once conditions normalize.
- Strong returns of 24% with revenue up 71% look good, but an unclear management read and momentum of 10 hold it back.
The current read
